At some point we made the book multi-language. That means that the book detects the language from accept_language and uses that. 8 languages were created (en, es, de, fr, pt, jp, cz, it) and pre populated with english (official 3rd ed, except for it pre populated with italian) to easy translation. People did not check their browser settings and the language (stated at the top of the book) and have edited the different languages. This is a recent problem (less than 1mo). I have now frozen all translations and they will stay frozen until I process the 4th edition. I will diff everything to make sure no edit gets lost.
